Yes. It is more important to avoid massive civilian casualties in the Korean theater.

If all we end up with is GOP Lite and Corporate Democrats -- it won't make all that much difference. Less people "Looking Forward" and less people "Taking Impeachment OFF the table"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"If all we end up with is GOP Lite and Corporate Democrats -- it won't make all that much difference."

It makes a big difference, especially for those of us who are not white. Does DACA matter? Race relations and discrimination? White evangelical influence?

What about those who are sick? Democrats would have given us universal health care.

One may stick stubbornly to personal ideals - as Paul Ryan does - but it smells like privilege to me. The times are serious, and a practical approach is necessary.

You will never get the government you want.

So true "Democrats" would have given us universal health card. GOP lite and corporate Democrats will give us what we have. What is the definition of doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results. These are the same people who sat on their hands as the Republicans stole 3 Presidential elections, 2000/2004/2016.

And also so true we will NEVER get the government we want under existing conditions.

From Screwed:
"I think many of us recognize that for all but the wealthiest, life in America is getting increasingly hard. Screwed explores why, showing how this is no accidental process, but rather the product of conscious political choices, choices we can change with enough courage and commitment. Like all of Thom’s great work, it helps show us the way forward."
Paul Loeb, author of Soul of a Citizen and The Impossible Will Take a Little While
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"In an age rife with media-inspired confusion and political cowardice, we yearn for a decent, caring, deeply human soul whose grasp of the problems confronting us provides a light by which we can make our way through the quagmire of lies, distortions, pandering, and hollow self-puffery that strips the American Dream of its promise. How lucky we are, then, to have access to the wit, wisdom, and willingness of Thom Hartmann, who shares with us here that very light, grown out of his own life experience."
Mike Farrell, actor, political activist, and author of Just Call Me Mike and Of Mule and Man
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a literary descendent of Ben Franklin and Tom Paine. His unflinching observations and deep passion inspire us to explore contemporary culture, politics, and economics; challenge us to face the facts of the societies we are creating; and empower us to demand a better world for our children and grandchildren."
John Perkins, author of the New York Times bestselling book Confessions of an Economic Hit Man
